Gran Paradiso Lily

A round dishcloth, knitted in the round, from the outside in. The pattern starts with a lace border, followed by a simple body, shaped by regular decreases. An advanced pattern, not suitable for beginners. **Put two of my dishcloths into your cart and pay for only one!** **The pattern comes with charts as well as round by round written instructions, plus detailed directions on how to resize it into a lager item, e.g a rug, placemat etc.** A lovely, intricate pattern, probably way too fiddly for an everyday dishcloth, but all the more suitable as a housewarming gift for a dear friend, or a little extra for a baby shower. The pattern is also easy to resize into a placemat, a (baby) blanket, a rug, a tablecloth, a doily etc. Yarn: Drops Loves You 7, colour 48, held double, 35 g/120 m (1.2 oz/131 yds) Needles: 4 mm (US 6), DPNs or circulars (or size to get gauge) Gauge: 20 sts/28 rs in 10 cm/4” in stockinette stitch Size: 22 x 22 cm/8.7 x 8.7” Required skills/techniques: basic knitting, knitting in the round, lace knitting, mirror knitting Notions: 7+1 stitch markers, darning needle Testers said: "- While it's a definite challenging pattern, the end result is really pretty."
